    Mountain Biker Robbed at Gunpoint in Cape Town, South Africa

    During a ride in the town of Somerset West in Cape Town, South Africa, a mountain biker was robbed at gunpoint by three people. The rider, identified as Malcolm Fox, was wearing a GoPro during his ride and was able to capture the entire incident, which can be seen below.

    He said the robbers did not appear to know the GoPro was in fact a camera, and they went on to rob him without attempting to conceal their identities in any way. The incident occurred on May 31 and Fox said they stole his bike, cellphone, sunglasses, and car keys.

    “Fortunately they did not have a clue what a GoPro was and this is the evidence that will assist in their prosecution,” the video’s description reads.
